In addition, with the loss of Mendes-Gamburyan opening up a spot on the main card, a middleweight bout between Court McGee (14-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) and Josh Neer (33-12-1 MMA, 6-8 UFC) has moved up from the preliminary card to the pay-per-view.

UFC 157 takes place Feb. 23 at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and Facebook. The main event is a women’s bantamweight title fight between Ronda Rousey and Liz Carmouche.

Burrell went 3-1 while in Strikeforce with wins over Joe Ray, Lukasz Les and James Terry. But at “Strikeforce: Barnett vs. Cormier” this past May, he had a six-fight win streak snapped with a TKO loss to Chris Spang.

Villefort this past May lost for the first time in his MMA career, dropping a split decision to Quinn Mulhern, also at “Strikeforce: Barnett vs. Cormier.” But he’s been out of action since then. The Imperial Athletics “Blackzilians” product started his pro career 6-0 with three submissions and a pair of knockouts.

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
